She is DONE ! measures 54 x 42 each dress is closely outlined as all details.. makes a fun back . Each dress block has lines top to bottom but not through dress. FMQ around Dolly. Waiting for baby girl to give this to !
Tone on Tone does not photograph well.. White on White around Dolly. camera always shines this out.

Oh this baby girl is going to love, love, love, this quilt.
Nice job!

This has only gotten better as you showed us with each stage!

Am I correct in guessing that it's truly not "done" ... til baby arrives and you create a personal label with her name and birth details?

What a treasure!

That is really cute. Would be nice if you could take them off and dress her but then the would wind up getting lost. Some little girl is going to love this!

Absolutely adorable. I'll bet it was fun picking out the fabrics to make her clothes from.

sisLH 09-28-2011 06:01 AM

That is just so nice. It reminds me of when I had paper dolls as a child. Does anyone still remember Paper Dolls?

GreatStarter 09-28-2011 06:04 AM

Great job finishing your adorable quilt. I recently saw the pattern for it and regret not buying it.

Oh I love this pretty quilt.

PatchGirl 09-28-2011 06:54 AM

I LOVE THIS!!!! Reminds me of when my cousin and I would play paper dolls. We had ones that actually had a small magnet in the cardboard doll and then you taped a small flat little oblong magnet to the back of the cut out paper dress and it stuck to her;) Love this quilt! And the colors are perfect:)

Another idea...use the same patterns and make her a cloth-paper doll set...the doll is only finished on the front side...velcro soft side on doll...one piece with work if dresses are kinda stiff...have one that is very old and I love it.

Very pretty.

deedum 09-29-2011 03:25 AM

piepatch 09-29-2011 03:52 AM

This is so precious, and what beautiful work! If I were a little girl, I would beg for it. It is an absolute treasure!
